Death

The common name considered to be fact will lead the vital record, followed by source information. The name, location and all other information found on the document will be spelt as it appears.

In many cases, the cause of death won’t be included. I have found them difficult to decipher on many occasions, so I’ll leave that up to the individual researcher. Links to the sources are noted at the bottom of the page to check causes of death and to double-check the transcription. Although I strive for accuracy, I am prone to making human errors.
